FYI, another guy had that fitment issue with his rear bumper too. He complained about it to JCR and they sent him those quarter panel guards for free.

Well no updates as far as additions to the rig. Next on the list is some one ton steering and gears and lockers. And id really like to get a set of 35's instead of the 33's i have. i am gonna start working of welding some plate on my LCA mounts as skids and the same with the rear shock mounts. I also really need to start working on a exo cage or maybe for a cleaner look an interior cage, due to the extremeness of the wheeling.

Ive seen these flop and it never turns out good. Thats the only thing i like more about wranglers, factory roll cage. But, its just an opportunity for me to hone on my welding and fab skills

I went wheeling at rausch the 16th of april and it performed flawlessly. Im in the "wheel" phase of build, wheel, break, repeat.... So as i break $hit ill get better stuff!

As far as the rear bumper, im gonna comp cut my rears/ fold the quater up, so that piece is gonna be no more anyways...

All i used was a little rattle can and lots of patients. VERY light coats and lots of them. i used rustoleum metal primer and rustoleum flat black enamel on the front and rear
